PTA was held Septembe^Wth in the hifrh school gym. A very in¬ formative program was presented followed by an active discussion of some of the points raised.
Leading off the program were Mr. Glenard Delaney and Mr. Thomas Kelly who inti-oduced returning and new teachers. After his introduction of the teachers Mr. Delany stated his opinion that the customary early fall Open House in which year's objectives are outlines was especially diffi¬ cult for new teachers. Also men¬ tioned was the dilemma of choos¬ ing which room to visit faced by parents of more than one child. Consequently he requested some other form or a program later in the year. In later dis cussion many parents felt some sort of viewing of children's work is desirable, particularly at the beginning of the school year. Subsequently a committee of two teachers, Miss Frances Crowley and Mrs. Robert Schachtner, and two parents, Mrs. Bastian and Mrs. Marvin Weide, was formed to offer solutions.
Following Mr. Kelly's introduc¬ tion of teachers he outlined some general objectives and pointed up some of the overcrowding and overcrowding and heavy teacher class loads existing in the school.

Accord¬ ing to Mrs. Giuned the sewerage has backed up into their home some five different times, the most recent occurences being last fri¬ day and again early Tuesday morning.
Mrs. Gruner went on to say that her husband, Robert, had to evacuate their children from their lower level bedroom, wading through backed up sewerage 10 inches deep at some points. In the late afternoon Tuesday the water was still o\-erflowing in the Gru ner residence and at that time soapsuds were present althrough Mrs. Gruner had not had any wa¬ ter running whatsoever in Tues¬ day from the time of the first flooding. She stated that every time someone took a drink of wa¬ ter at the sink the Gruners got that much more water.
The Gruners have a sump pump which Mr. Gruner connected with a hose to tlie village storm sewer running it out the basement win¬ dow.
Other hwnes on N6rth Church Street from the comer of Church and Algonquin Road to Douglas Avenue had water seepage and flooding of basements on Friday and again Monday night. This, however, was surface water ra¬ ther than sewerage.
According to Delores McGec, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Urbach, the force of the water was so intense on Friday evening it broke a basement window in the Urbach home located at North Church and the Algonquin Road, completely flooding the basement. She went on to say that a snake and a frog were washed into the basement. Mrs. McGeC stated that a sanitary drainage ditch overlows every time there is a heavy rain¬ fall causing water to flow onto patio and seeping through the walls.

According to Mayor Wilpault BriU the badciq> of the sanitary

He stated that Huntley Streets Superintendent Percy Swanson is investigating the situation at the present time and will report back to the Village board.
Barn Fire On Shauf Fartn
A spect.acular barn fire occurred last Friday evening, September 17, at the O. W. Shaw farm. The fire was .started by a burst of lightning during a severe electri¬ cal storm which cut out the lights throughout the lights through the village. The Huntley police car drove around town blowing its siren to summon fire¬ men.
The intense downpour of rain and the many spectators driving to the fire made it necessary for the firemen to proceed cautiously to their destiriation. The barn was filled with hay and burned com¬ pletely to the ground. No estimate of the cost of the damage has been made.
